The prime responsibility for good grooming rests with the student and the parent.  Nevertheless, the school shares that responsibility, since it believes that good grooming represents a difference in character and motivation and should distinguish the St. Brendan Catholic Elementary student from pupils attending other schools.  Students are expected to come to school looking clean and neat and dressed in a manner that is in accordance to the school uniform regulations. LET US TAKE PRIDE IN OUR APPEARANCE!

Parents are requested to check the child/children's attire each morning.  In the event that a student is not in complete uniform, the parent will be called and the child will be sent home.  Students are required to wear the prescribed full school uniform each day including the first day of school at all times and at all school activities.  Parents are requested to sew name tags on all school clothing.  Abuse of the student dress code could lead to disciplinary action.  The school will dispose of all lost clothing if it is not claimed in the school lost and found after two (2) weeks.

There are no exceptions to this dress code.  Students not in full school uniform must come to school with a note, addressed to the Principal, explaining the reason(s) and signed by the parent.

A belt is part of the school dress code.  Boys MUST wear a belt AT ALL TIMES.

Students will be asked to remove unauthorized clothing and articles.

STUDENTS WITH PROBLEM WITH THEIR FEET, WHO MUST WEAR TENNIS SHOES, MUST PRESENT A MEDICAL CERTIFICATE.  THE ONLY TENNIS SHOES PERMITTED WILL BE SOLID NAVY BLUE OR BLACK.
